8-year-old left alone in backseat kidnapped in carjacking: NYPD

An 8-year-old girl who was left alone in a car while her mom went inside of a Brooklyn hospital to seek treatment Saturday was kidnapped when a thief stole the vehicle and rode off with her in the back seat.

The unidentified mother ran into Brookdale Hospital in Brownsville after she was involved in a car accident on Rockaway Parkway, according to police sources.

The apparently injured woman left her 8-year-old daughter unaccompanied in the backseat of the car, which was parked on Rockaway Parkway.

The parked car would then be broken into and stolen, with the little girl still in the backseat waiting for her mother to return, according to the NYPD.

The vehicle would later be found on Howard Avenue and the 8-year-old was safely recovered.

Cops say it is unclear if the carjacker knew the 8-year-old was in the vehicle.
